Milkshape is a low poly handling program about 12,000 polies, depending somewhat on your system. Anything over 9,000 polies is hit and miss on loading.

Also, how many textures does the Potemkin-TMP have? Number of textures will give you a clue to how many groups it has. I am finding that milkshape cannot import a SFC mod with several groups. It might be able to import a *.3ds  with more groups. Ask WZ if he can give you the source file for it.

Most of WZ's ships for some reason won't load into MS3D. I know it isn't the polies, since high poly ships load into MS3D without problem.   I know this from experience.  Having someone convert the ships for you to 3DS will work.  Again, know this from experience.  Personally, I only use MS3D when porting BC ships to SFC3, or having to do the occasional work on a BC ship, as I had to do recently with the Chabot Refit.  I still much prefer MAX5.  :-D

i can't log to his forum i don't remember my password, i can't retreave it cause i change isp and i can't email him cause there something that wont work with the address, its a problem with outlook express and i don't know if i can use another software like thunderbird with this isp, so if anyone can send me the engine of the potemkin-tmp and other new fed mod from wz so i can make a few kitbash (also i would need a fca from wz in ms3d format) i can't load them, i hate ms3d toolimited and m still waiting to see if the studio max 5 that m downloading will work.

the Milkshape crashing problem with some models is a importer plugin problem i think.
I imported some of those Milkshape crashing models into max and exported them into 3ds and than those loaded fine into Milkshape.
